We said: Colchester United 0-2 Salford City

Despite home advantage and Bloomfield's hope of progress from the training field, it is hard to get away from the obvious attacking deficiencies that Colchester have shown this season. The U's will find it very hard to break down a Salford back line full of their manager's confidence to withstand a disjointed and injury-stricken lineup. They will likely be punished by the skill of Callum Hendry and Odin Bailey, both of whom are more-than-capable attackers to unpick Colchester at the weekend. Read more.
